I have taped the 2nd anode lead inside a jar a bunch of times. The jar won't shock you. Glass is a fine insulator.

Just double checking that we are not making a "glass jar capacitor" :-)

Not unless you line it inside and out with foil.. whut would be a Leyden jar.

like Username1 suggested, i just hooked up the hv wire to a hv probe and kept it a distance from anything-just rested the connection on a piece of plastic-worked well over the years.
